And if you have an amulet with triple jump (which, we should say, is very rare) that will be an extra help with evading the shield.

If you haven't already, the second potion upgrade - so you can have two swigs to top up your health - and the Mutation that gives you a second life (Ygdar Orus Li Ox) will keep you alive longer. Then you can lay these down without worrying about melee attacks, and concentrate on dodging attacks.

We recommended coming with a ranged loadout (equipment, bows) and several Tactics upgrades to give them a boost, as well as a smattering of health upgrades. Though the above strategy will see you through no matter your loadout, there are a few ways to prepare if you are particularly struggling. Other things you should know about beating The Concierge in Dead Cells Keep calm and focused and you should succeed.īeat The Concierge, you'll earn the Challenger's Rune (allowing you to access the Daily Challenge), some gold, Cells, some powerful equipment, and a Blueprint (with new drops on subsequent defeats). That's essentially how the battle plays out - looking out for those two attacks in order, and steering clear of the shield when it gets close. The shield might inflict a little damage as you pass, but it's better than staying put. If you become pinned against the side while a shield is active, jump over the boss rather than roll through. Thankfully these are short lived, so just wait it out if you can, or use ranged attacks to try and destroy them. Throughout the battle, the Concierge will also be surrounded by different shields, which will reduce or nullify any damage. It takes a little practice to get the timing right, so if you have health upgrades to give you a buffer throughout the fight, that'll really help. If you want to use a melee attack, doing so between these two attacks (after the lunge) is your best bet. The lunge sees The Concierge crouch - roll towards the boss to avoid it entirely. The shockwave sees The Concierge pull its arm back - when you see that, double jump to avoid the shockwave. In our experience, the shockwave was followed by the lunge every time - allowing you to predict them easier. The other two are deployed wherever you are standing - a shockwave and a lunge. One is a swipe up close, which you can easily roll. As soon as you see the yellow exclamation mark appear, you know you must evade. Though its attacks pack a punch, they are thankfully easily telegraphed. Your best bet is to keep your distance at all times, and use ranged attacks, whether it's arrows or knifes, or if you have them, equipment (such as Sinew Slicers) you can deploy that'll chip away at its health and do the job for you. This powerful brute pins you into a small enclosed space, and slowly walks towards you. Thankfully, its attacks are few and far between, and once you have them memorised, they become straightforward to avoid. The Concierge is the biggest enemy you've faced so far, and between that and trapping you on the bridge without an escape route, makes it a particularly intimidating foe.
